Power Pairings Drive Medical Device Electronic Manufacturing Services
After dutifully conforming to gender and generational expectations for much of her life, the self-described “fitness junkie” is now shattering societal norms with her viral exercise videos on social media. In them, Rischko flaunts her fine fettle through synchronized dance moves (Dolly Parton/Kenny Rogers, Ben E. King, Sanika, Taylor Swift, and Famous Sally & YB, among others, provide the music), circuit training, spin classes, pull-ups, ab rollouts, and planks (her personal best was eight minutes, 40 seconds).
The benefits and applications of photochemical etching for medical technology
Complex, precision metal components are found in a variety of medical industry applications, and the demand for these parts is increasing with the medical technology industry’s rapid advancements. With robotics and AI technology’s increased use in medical technology environments, the need for highly specified and calibrated parts will only become greater and more urgent.
Component Selection Considerations for Sensor-Driven Medical Devices
Companies introducing new sensor-driven technology into the biosensor market must make careful, strategic decisions during the design phase if their products are to compete with established players. Often lost in the excitement of burgeoning product ideas is the need for component compatibility, but this is a critical consideration that significantly impacts market viability.
Exploring the Versatility of MEMS Pressure Sensors
MEMS sensors are made of a piezoresistive diaphragm connected to a Wheatstone-bridge circuit
They respond to pressure change and generate a proportional electrical current
Compare MEMS sensors with fiber-optic and fluid-filled sensors
Will Abbott Have a Strong Year for M&A?
During a 4Q23 earnings call, Ford was asked by an analyst about Abbott’s strong balance sheet, which was described as “$20 billion worth of firepower”, and if that would prompt the company to become involved with acquisitions this year.
Assembly Technology for Next-Generation Robot-Assisted Surgery Systems and Instruments
The introduction of endoscopy in surgical practice is one of the greatest success stories in the history of medicine, and there is no end in sight in terms of the development of minimally invasive surgical procedures and instruments. Advances in material sciences, imaging, sensors, and robotics are driving a need for new innovative approaches to manufacturing the next generation of surgical instruments.
Medtec China’s 20th Anniversary brings together 1000+ Exhibitors and Facilitates Business Innovation in Shanghai in September!
on the 20th anniversary of Medtec entering the Chinese market, Medtec China 2024 will open up the tracks of advanced active device and quality testing. Fully tapping into the demand of buyers in the stock, the three exhibitions will be held concurrently, including Medtec China, ADTE (Advanced Active Device Tech EXPO) and Quality Expo, which will attract more new visitors from the application industry and create unlimited business opportunities for exhibitors.
Navigating the complexities of micromoulding for medical devices
Micromoulding is a specialised form of injection moulding that produces extremely small, high-precision parts, often with intricate features and complex geometries. In the medical device industry, Micromoulding has become an indispensable technology due to the trend towards miniaturisation and the increasing complexity of medical devices.
Advancing Medical Device Sustainability with Specialty Thermoplastics
By choosing specialty thermoplastics, device manufacturers can help reduce the environmental impact of their products while gaining plastic’s well-known benefits of expanded design freedom and streamlined, high-volume production of parts compared to metal alternatives.
Begin With the End in Mind When Developing Wearable Devices
Dave Liebl, chief commercial & technology officer at Intricon, has one main piece of advice for wearable biosensor manufacturers. “If you think there’s a chance that your device would be a medically approved and recognized data source for making medical diagnoses or deliver therapeutic values, then you should start the development of that product with that in mind,” he said in a recent interview with Design News.
